Reductive amination is an effective means to introduce diverse chemical functionality at the reducing end of starch.  We report herein a suite of end-modified starches and their associated conjugation chemistry.  We report not only the efficiency of the end-group incorporation but also on how these end-modified starches can be used in the synthesis of architecturally diverse starch-based materials.
